Best Brake Combo

I want to replace the brake pads/rotors all around. I am thinking of Powerslot drilled and slotted with Hawk pads. My concern here is will the ceramic type pads work with the rotors? Should I just get the crossdrilled and not slotted ones?

Re: Best Brake Combo

This may be more than you want to spend, but I would opt for a good quality cross drilled or slotted and have them cryogenically treated by diversified cryogenics. I had them treat my Brembo two piece rotors.
Benefits:Rotors won't warp, up to three times the life expectancy,cracking is eliminated,reduced fade. Only about 125-140 shipped. Or you can buy instock rotors from them that are already treated. I HIGHLY recommend this treatment, also used by many race teams!

Re: Best Brake Combo

Crossdrilled/slotted are eye candy. Get them for that reason alone.

You need to set some boundries, as in how much you're wanting to shell out also.
